ZORA – “VIDEOGURL”

1 month ago 12



In 2022, ZORA unleashed her debut full-length Z1. Today, the Minneapolis singer, rapper, and producer is announcing its follow-up, BELLAdona, and sharing the amibitious lead single “VIDEOGURL.”

“VIDEOGURL,” is, according to ZORA, about “the commodification of womanhood and femininity, and a think-piece on unrealistic beauty standards and how that affects women.”

Influences for BELLAdonna include the horror films Nosferatu and Ms. 45, as well as Tyler, The Creator’s IGOR and Beyoncé’s I Am… Sasha Fierce. The LP also features guests Destiny Spike, Kurt Cavalheiro, Myia Thornton, Jaemy Paris, and Duhgreatone.

BELLAdonna follows experiences with sexual assault that took ZORA a lot of time to face. “The indifference of bystanders, and the realization of the precarious safety of trans people, led me to confront my own experiences of abuse and exploitation,” she said. “In response, I created a narrative that is as haunting as it is empowering.”
